We build the digital products behind some of the world’s most celebrated hospitality and lifestyle estates - Babylonstoren, The Newt in Somerset, Vignamaggio, and others.\nOur office sits on the Babylonstoren estate itself, surrounded by gardens, mountains, and farm-to-table food. We design, build and maintain eCommerce platforms, mobile apps, admissions and membership systems, booking engines, and brochure websites. Our team is small but high-impact, working across a portfolio of luxury brands that people genuinely love.\nRole purpose\nYou will make sure every estate leader understands their business deeply, sees problems and opportunities early, and acts with confidence.\nYou do that by turning business questions into reports and analysis people trust and use, quickly and to a high standard. This is a hands-on role: most of your time goes into building, checking and delivering, alongside other analysts in the pod who also build. The Insights & Predictive Analytics pod owns everything from the semantic model to the person using the data. The Senior BI Analyst owns the architecture, standards and metric governance of that layer. You build within those standards, own delivery for the business areas you look after, and bring well-reasoned ideas to improve them.\nThis role suits a strong intermediate level analyst who enjoys delivering, learns a business fast and wants to grow their technical depth alongside experienced analysts.\nKey responsibilities\nBusiness understanding\nLearn how each business area you look after works: what it sells, what drives its performance and how decisions are made.\nWork with business owners to understand what they need to see, and challenge a request when a better measure exists.\nPropose the metrics, leading and lagging indicators and owners for your areas, and agree them through the pod’s metric governance.\nReporting delivery\nTake requests from question to trusted report: requirements, build, checks, release and handover.\nBuild reports, measures and model extensions on the pod’s shared, certified models, following the agreed standards for modelling, naming and report design.\nWrite and interpret SQL across our data sources to answer questions and test what you build.\nKeep several pieces of work moving at once, deliver at a steady pace and set realistic expectations when priorities compete.\nData quality\nCheck your numbers against source and against existing reports before anything is released.\nFollow the pod’s testing and release process, and add checks that catch problems before\nstakeholders do.\nRaise data gaps and issues with Data Engineering, rather than working around them in a report.\nKeep the reports you own healthy and in use, and suggest retiring those that no longer earn their place.\nInsight and analysis\nAnswer the question that was asked, and point out trends, early warnings and what to do about them.\nTurn repeated one-off analysis into reporting that people can use again.\nContribute to forecasting and predictive work using the methods the pod has agreed, and track results against actuals.\nSelf-service and enablement\nHelp estate teams find answers for themselves through self-service and AI tools, and make sure those answers match the reports.\nDocument your work so others can understand, use and maintain it.\nTrain report users so they get real value from what you build.\nWorking in the pod\nBring design ideas to the other analysts in the pod with clear reasoning, and act on review feedback.\nShare what you learn about the business and the data with the pod.\nPair with the Data Analyst on builds, share proven approaches and help them grow.\nSuggest improvements to standards and ways of working based on what you see in delivery.\nWhat we’re looking for\nEssential\nA relevant tertiary degree, for example in Information Systems, Computer Science, Statistics,\nMathematics, Economics or Business Analytics.\nTypically 3+ years in BI or data analysis, with a strong record of delivering reports that people use.\nHands-on Power BI or a comparable BI tool: data modelling, measures (DAX or similar), datapreparation and publishing.\nStrong SQL, and the habit of checking your own numbers before anyone else sees them.\nEvidence that you turned a business question into a report or metric that changed a decision.\nFast, organised delivery across several requests at once, with close attention to detail.\nClear communication with non-technical people, and openness to review and feedback.\nPractical, critical use of AI tools in your own work.\nAdvantageous\nExperience on a cloud data platform such as BigQuery.\nForecasting or statistical analysis in Python or R.\nHospitality, retail, ecommerce, membership or financial reporting.\nData from hotel, point-of-sale or finance systems.\nVersion control for BI or data work.\nSelf-service, semantic-layer or AI-enabled analytics tools.\nAfrikaans in addition to English.\nHow we will know it is working\nEstate teams get trusted answers quickly\nThe time from request to trusted report keeps falling for the areas you look after.\nMost of what you release needs no rework after release.\nOur own checks find data issues before stakeholders do.\nReporting is built on shared foundations\nNew reporting uses the shared, certified models and agreed metric definitions, not one-off builds.\nYour work meets the pod’s standards in review, and needs less rework over time.\nInsight leads to action\nMore people use your reports regularly, and keep coming back.\nStakeholders can point to decisions they made differently because of your work.\nThe pod grows stronger\nYour technical depth grows year on year, and you take on more complex work.\nWhat you build and share is reused across estates and by others in the pod.\nPerks & Benefits\nDaily catered lunch.\nFlexible working hours - core hours are 9am to 3pm.\nChoice of equipment (most of us use Apple).\nGenerous training and conference budget.\n30% discount at Babylonstoren - online shop, hotel, spa, and farm shops.\nFree admission to Babylonstoren for you and immediate family.\nAccess to Babylonstoren’s recreation centre, gym, swimming pool, and studios.\nQuarterly socials and team building.","description_format":"text","description_chars":6268,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":3,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Flexible schedule"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Hotels & Resorts","Wine & Winemaking"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-29T12:59:16Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":2,"expected_fill_days":21,"reasons":["conf:1","velocity","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-11-01T06:10:25Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/babylonstoren-bi-analyst","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/babylonstoren-bi-analyst.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-01T19:48:44Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":30454,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-02T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":692549},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=692549"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fbabylonstoren-bi-analyst"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fbabylonstoren-bi-analyst"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fbabylonstoren-bi-analyst"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/babylonstoren-bi-analyst\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fbabylonstoren-bi-analyst"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3458446}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"babylonstoren.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3458446},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
